Rise and Shine

Stayed up too late last night (for good reasons) so I’m dragging AND it’s hump day – no better day to watch this.  As the video says “the best motivational video EVER”.  It’s hyperbole… but it might just be true.  I’d quote it but… you really just need to see the whole thing.  Get up.  Going.  Get at it.  And have a wonderful day!!

Angel

I fell in love with John Craigie with these lyrics: “an angel with a messed up past is still an angel” – was exactly what I needed to hear at the time.  Tonight I’m heading to hear him for a 3rd time – I think the most I’ve gone out for anyone except Rent and Les Miserables.

Have a listen:

Anna Rose (Part IV) from John Craigie on Myspace.

“Quit your job, sell your car

Tell that fool that you live with, you don’t live here anymore

Bring your banjo I’ll teach you how to play

You know its ne——ver too late

You say your life’s been hard, you’ve been abused and mangled

but i tell you an angel with a messed up past is still an angel

All these people just push you aside

you got this chance to leave ‘em all behind

You’ll watch less and sing more, it’ll be easy to quit that stuff when you can’t afford

Nothing but the bare necessities.  You won’t be a millionaire but at least you’ll be free”
